GELCOAT

Gelcoat based on IZO/NPG resin, thanks to which it achieves good resistance to weather conditions and high mechanical properties. Primarily recommended for repairing minor scratches and for the production of laminate products. The product is delivered without hardener, you need Metox 30. The gelcoat and the catalyst should be mixed gently.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: GELCOAT FOR LAMINATING AND REPAIRS:

Paraffin corrector, e.g. SAP 300010264, capacity 60 ml

IMPORTANT

The package contains only gelcoat.
The hardener and paraffin corrector must be purchased separately.

HOW TO APPLY GELCOAT:

Manually: brush

HOW TO USE:

First of all, the surface should be degreased and sanded with sandpaper. Remove dust and degrease again.

Mix the base with the hardener in a ratio of 100:3. The gelling time, the so-called potlife, i.e. the possibility of use after mixing the components, is approximately 15-25 minutes at a temperature of approximately 20°C.

FURTHER WORK:

As already mentioned, the gelcoat undergoes oxygen inhibition under the influence of oxygen (it does not dry out, the surface is always sticky). Assuming that in the case of repairs we use the so-called Topcoat can be achieved by adding paraffin concealer. Recommended amount of paraffin corrector 2%-5%.

Our FAQ
Answers to frequently asked questions

Why the epoxy filler does not harden?

Possible causes

  • Incorrect proportion of base and herdener,
  • Too low temperature of ambient and surface (less than 10ﹾC),
  • Mixing two components from two different manufacturers,

How to prevent

  • Apply the correct proportions of components
  • Maintain steady temperature (around 20ﹾC) during the whole hardening process,
  • Use base and hardener from the same manufacturer

How to remove

  • The uncured mass requires complete removal from the surface.

Is it necessary to always sand the surface between application of two different products?

We recommend to always sand the surface between applying two different products to ensure uniform surface roughness and adhesion of subsequent layers. The sanded surface should also be cleaned and degreased.

Why despite the use of antifouing paint the bottom of the boat is overgrown?

Possible causes

  • Too thin layer of antifouling paint,
  • Choosing the wrong antifouling to type of a boat or yacht
  • Thinning of antifouling paint,
  • Incorrect surface preparation before antifouling application.

How to prevent

  • Apply the right layer thickness of paint indicated by manufacturer,
  • Choose antifouling dedicated to type of boat or yacht and suitable for the type of water,
  • Do not thin antifouling because of the risk of reducing effectiveness,
  • Careful surface preparations (grinding, clearing, degreasing),

How to remove

  • Wet grinding, apply new layers of antifouling paint.
  • Use C1 shell and fouling remover.
